Chapter 29:
As Dean wandered around the garage he smelt the petrol and the gas from the pumps.
Tess watched him touching things and rubbing his chin while he thought. He liked the place.
The smell of it and most importantly he loved how the place encouraged well hidden memories of his Dad working hard as a mechanic in Lawrence. Dean would watch him working on weekends before everything in his world had changed.
He'd always wanted to follow in his Father's footsteps and be a mechanic he never realised that he had followed them almost full circle. He was a husband, a hunter a father and now a mechanic. He owned his own business.
That was just weird.
He stroked his chin and stared at the floor.
'So what do you think?' He heard Tess whisper.
Turning to face her he smiled. Seeing her standing there with her big blue eyes unsure and wary about his reaction made him move towards her.
He loved the way she stood with her arms folded and how she self consciously messed with her hair when she was nervous. 'Well! All I can say is that I want this to work so bad.'
Her face lit up and she flushed.
'I so needed to hear you say it.'
Dean smirked, 'You are the only one who has ever believed we could do something like this.'
She shook her head, 'No Dean not just in us but I believe in you.' His eyes filled with tears. 'I have always believed in you.'
He folded her into his body she was so close she could hear his heartbeat.
She carried on, 'Dean you are more than just a hunter. You are a brilliant husband a wonderful father and you deserve to have a chance. That's why I did all of these things Dean. '
She knew that Dean was near to tears. His beautiful green eyes that moved her no matter what expression they contained within their depths.
'I think we can do this. No we will do it.' Tess nodded and her hair scratched against his chin. 'I've just realised I am more than just a hunter.'
Pulling away just to look into his eyes and smiled, 'Well I always knew really but I didn't fully appreciate that fact till this moment.'
She kissed him. First his eyes so she could taste the salt from his tears on her tongue, she kissed his nose and finally his mouth. He responded instantaneously by pressing her up against the wall.
'I'm serious we have to take this home.'
Tess nodded her big eyes were wide with lust. Looking around she giggled slightly, 'It's the oil and petrol that does it for you isn't it?'
Dean nodded his lips curling into a wicked grin.
